As for emma, she was barely there in wolverine. Even though it was obviously intended to be her, did they ever actually say her name in the movie? |
Yeah, just checked and low near mint copy of ASM #1 goes for 57,000.
If I had 22,000 dollars I'd buy that shit right now, and make an astronomical profit. |

All the marketing made it clear, though, so mileage may vary.

Wow that Ebay auction is fucking insane. I've never understood those earlier issues that come in those weird plastic covers. Are they actually genuine originals from the 60's, that are being "preserved" or something, or are they all fancy reprints made to look like the originals.
Personally, I'd have imagine that entire collection being worth more than $22,500, especially if they're all real, genuine, original prints. |
The page says there aren't any near mints in the earlier issues, but even GD to VG fetches between 3-15,000.
And yeah, they are genuine, thus the protective covers. Dude is a 15 year seller on ebay with a 100% flawless track record, so I doubt it's a scam. |

Yeah, I know. BUT STILL. CONTINUITY. |
Emma, I will grant you, as she was apparently credited only as "Kayla's sister".

Apparently the director of GoG is copping heat for posting some "Top xx lady superheroes you'd want to bang" list a while ago, which has since been deleted but not un-Google cached. One of the suggestions was to boycott the film, which is a bit of an overreaction if ever I've seen one. Sure, send the director hate mail or whatever, but really, to boycott an entire film and jeopardise the jobs of everyone involved is a bit much for a moment of lacking foresight.

Maybe it wasn't just women but whatever, the female entrants in particular are catching attention of easily aggravated comic book fans. |
Not entirely undeservedly, I might add, since I don't wish to seem like I am in any way endorsing or agreeing with James Gunn's list here, but I can't help but feel like this is all a bit of a mountain out of a molehill.
|
It seems the list was before he landed the job, too. If they drop him to avoid controversy, I hope the production wasn't far ahead. Seems a silly thing, though, something that is so common on forums everywhere demands boycott and shit now.
|
Oh, yeah. It was well before he got this job. That said, I'm sure Disney would be thrilled being associated with a guy who wrote something like that Batwoman entry, whether it was now or before they ever crossed paths.
|
Well now that it's taken down perhaps they can wait to sweep this under the rug. It's some time before the movie drops, and the internet has a notoriously short attention span.

hope Jack Huston is Star Lord
love him |
Anytime you can get more Richard Harrow, I'm all for it.

Samuel L. Jackson has confirmed Kevin Feige’s prediction that Iron Man 3 will be, with the exception of the title character, an Avengers-free zone. Jackson told Total Film magazine, “I think my next time as Nick Fury is in Captain America: The Winter Soldier, because I’m not in Iron Man 3. None of the Avengers are in Iron Man 3. It’s a standalone Iron Man movie.”
Since Jackson isn’t playing Nick Fury in Thor: The Dark World, this means that audiences will have to wait until the Captain America sequel unspools in April of 2014. Of course there is always the possibility that Jackson will appear in some form or another in the new S.H.I.E.L.D. TV series, though so far there has been no announcement of how Joss Whedon and the other writers working on the S.H.I.E.L.D. pilot are going to deal with the character of Nick Fury. |
Also, RE: Guardians of the Galaxy:
Meanwhile, casting for the film is already underway, with a number of male leads testing for the Peter Quill character, according to Deadline. Among the actors involved are Joel Edgerton, Jack Huston, Jim Sturgess, Lee Pace, and Eddie Redmayne. |
No cameo's from other characters in Iron Man 3... I don't really like that idea. At least have 1 character for 30 seconds.... I don't know- it would seem cooler to see Bruce or Fury or somebody taking a phone call or working in a lab.
|
I, on the other hand, like the idea of no cameos.
|
Quote:
I don't understand what the flap is about anyway. Old-ass post causes uproar among comic fans from the guy who made PG Porn, which is pretty much ignored in this instance. You would think THAT would cause people to boycott. |
Quote:
|
No cameos and no post credit scenes are both hypothetical situations that have not happened yet.
You cannot definitively state that it creates disappointment, frenzy, and outrage until it actually happens once. |
The thing is, they built up this 'movie universe' and now the thought of them wasting a chance of a 30 second nudge after their biggest movie ever seems rather wasteful.
|
I can, however, imagine the first MCU movie to not have a post credits scene will be looked at cross eyed. Cameos could be placed there (and really, I'm betting even IM3 will have a post credits cameo - they have a new cosmic arc to build). Even without a face showing up, there should be a lot of dialogue related to the Avengers event. It will be mentioned in all Phase 2 movies, trust me. Can't ignore it.
I don't mind the actual movie not having other characters, anymore than an issue of Batman that makes no reference to Superman or Green Lantern. They team up and then go back to their own lives, that's how it's been. Movie fans will have to square with that. |
I'm a little disappointed to not get an immediate follow-up to the tremendous Downey/Ruffalo chemistry, but Marvel hasn't steered me wrong yet.

Some theatres had somehow not run the post credit for Thor. That at least was an accident, but had folks in a WTF tizzy. First Class didn't have shit. Lots of pissy, angry people around me in the theatre for that one. And every movie had some sort of cameo. Even given the time frame of Capt. America where it would make little sense to put in almost anyone else as they weren't even born yet (save Wolverine presumably roaming the Canadian wilderness somewhere), they still managed to squeeze in the original Human Torch costume. Again, to establish it as an "every time" thing, then not make with it once, is a set up for dissappointment and borderline trolling. As long as they don't resort to Mortal Kombat II levels of shoehorning, a cameo here and there would be fine. It doesn't even have to be ANY of the Avengers or X-Men or family members of the Fantastic variety. Honestly, I'd mark the fuck out if they threw in Alpha Flight for a few seconds somewhere. |

Considering we're not going to get a new hulk movie, I thought it would be great to bring Ruffalo/Hulk in as a supporting character in one of the movies. |

Today is a big day for Marvel NOW!
The release of Avengers #1 and Thunderbolts. 2 books I have been dying for. Also got my copies of Iron Man 3 and Spider Man 699. I cannot wait until quitting time! edit: Also getting Deadpool 3 and All New X Men 3. Damn. |

Hate the new deadpool :nono:
|
Is it really that bad?
|
Quote:
I don't know what you don't like about it. :roll: |
ummm its fucking stupid.
Its not as funny as when daniel way was writing it. They completely lost deadpools character. hes just silly for the sake of being silly where as before there was a reason and usually a reason for it that when shown at the end looked genius. It always left you wondering if he meant to have the outcome he did or if it was accident. This new series has him hacking and slashing dead presidents and throwing out stupid jokes. |
Is that so far off DP as a character?
|
Quote:
The first 2 were pretty good. I'm not giving up on DP and the new writers. Big fans of theirs. |
What's left for marvel Now!? Captain America. Is there anything else?

So CM Punk wrote the foreword for the AvX hardcover. Went halfway through the book and I gotta say, Cyclops is well and truly a cock. The writers seem much aware of this.
|
New Deadpool is cool, a step up from most of Way's stuff... plus the art is great. I love the mix of silly and violence. I actually think he was a bit incompetent during Way's run and did things randomly for the LOL'S while trying to be something. This feels like it takes it self less serious so the silly factor works here and I like that it's just a random side story.
However Joe Kelly, Fabian Nicieza and Remender are the top Deadpool writers as far as I'm concerned. |
Quote:
I would have liked Cyclops to remain a villain after this, but he's already leading an x-men team in marvel now!. Granted, he's still a dick, but he's not what he could be. Wish marvel would commit when they turn a hero. Scarlet Witch could have been great as a villain. |
I actually liked Wanda taking Carol's offer to visit the Avengers Mansion only to get the official ban hammer from Vision. Like, "Bitch Disassembled and House of M was not that long ago, GTFO." Seemed kinda harsh but... No More Mutants. For fuck sake you can kinda blame Wanda for everything thus far, so I like that she got it hard on her first day back.
Cyclops could have been the new Magneto, but I guess he still sells merch as a good guy and it would have been to drastic a change for the kiddies (oh but let's outright kill him in a fucking movie). Cap owns Gambit in like two panels. |

Dog "Not Really Sabretooth" Logan Makes Cover Debut:
http://i.newsarama.com/images/wolvxmen026_02.jpg Eh. |
Quote:
It's just like, is anyone paying any attention at all? Her return to the Avengers is just a big mess. She should have remained a crazy reality altering mega threat on the scale of Thanos, and Surtur. |
Oh, and I doubt Cyclops moves any merch at all. They had to make him a dickhead just to make him remotely interesting. I think the marvel money train could have kept chugging along just fine with a Cyclops heel turn.

Read some avengers arena reviews. They were so bad I didn't even download it yet buy it
|
Quote:
|
The reviews I read were mostly positive. I may check it out
|
The peoples reviews I read were from long term readers. They mainly said that they took characters that were established and killed them off to start fresh...I don't know how accurate that is as I have nothing to go off of as this would be my first read in this book.
|
I read it, I didn't hate it, I will check it out again .
|
The more I think about it the more optimistic I am about this series. It doesn't feel like it will just be killing people for shock or a house cleaning effort. And after reading the messages from Dennis Hopeless in the letter column it sounds like he knows the proper way to handle this series. He respects the characters and isn't just throwing them in the meat grinder.
I'm going to stay on for the first arc at least. |
Jamie Foxx has revealed that Elektro will begin as a partner of sorts to Spider-Man, which would be the first time that character gets respect, until something happens that initiates his turn to villainy.
He also reveals that the costume will be black (I'm thinking otherwise darker than the classic 616 attire). This is in line with the Ultimate version of the character, of which this reboot adheres close to begin with. Foxx's Django co-star, Sam motherfucking Jackson also reveals that of course Nick Fury will have a larger role in the likely SHIELD heavy Captain America sequel. |

Would not mind if Lil League goes to one episode a week if it means a Lil Avengers episode alongside it. They could go to different schools. And then one day...

Ending for Amazing Spider-Man #700 leaked. Dan Slott has received death threats over it already.
I find it hilarious. Bring on Superior Spider-Man. |
Quote:

I don't think the comic was leaked to read, but the ending was discussed on io9.com.

Trying so hard to avoid those spoilers.
Regardless of what happens I'm with Dan Slott |
I am way behind on Marvel, so I will most likely have it spoilered for me somewhere before I ever catch up.

Some non-news for today, Hugh Jackman has officially joined Days of Future Past. This means we'll have some fresh Wolverine awesomeness for two straight years.
|
Wow, that's cool. Coincidently, I watched First Class last night, and that Wolverine cameo is still hilarious.
|
Yeah. And for me it puts an alternate spin to Logan meeting Charles in X1. Watching it after First Class, and this may be due to Stewart's epically nuanced approach, it feels like the Professor had this 'now I can finally guide you' vibe. Hard to explain. But as much as First Class walked over what was established, there's these deeper things that it strengthened for the initial trilogy. Origins had a similar though lighter effect like that.
